الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْمُحَبَّرِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَيْسَرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ السَّعْدِيِّ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ قَالَا:
خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: مَنْ تَبِعَ جِنَازَةً فَلَهُ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ يَخْطُوهَا حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ مِائَةُ أَلْفِ حَسَنَةٍ، وَمَحْوُ مِائَةِ أَلْفِ سَيِّئَةٍ، وَرَفْعُ مِائَةِ أَلْفِ دَرَجَةٍ، فَإِنْ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا وُكِّلَ بِهِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لَهُ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ، وَإِنْ شَهِدَ دَفْنَهَا اسْتَغْفَرُوا لَهُ حَتَّى يُبْعَثَ مِنْ قَبْرِهِ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ addressed us and said: 'Whoever follows a funeral gets for every step he takes until he returns one hundred thousand good deeds, the erasing of one hundred thousand bad deeds, and the raising of one hundred thousand degrees. If he prays over it, seventy thousand angels are appointed for him seeking forgiveness for him until he returns. And if he witnesses its burial, they seek forgiveness for him until he is raised from his grave.'
